I’m thinking that hanging still doesn’t stress the fiber but possibly makes it stiff and brittle while a gentle motion caused a small wear but keeps the textile flexible. Any material science people in the house?

If preserving it is a high priority, keep it in an inert atmosphere and protected from light. Basically, like in a museum.
